CRM Workflow & Integration¶
This document outlines the end-to-end CRM workflow for Pebble Orchestrator, based on the coordinated lead-to-enquiry lifecycle.
1. Workflow Architecture¶
The CRM manages the lifecycle from Pre-Lead identification through to Enquiry conversion, categorized by interaction states.

2. Stage Definitions¶
Interaction Status (Scale)¶
| Color Name | Legend | Description | Examples |
|---|---|---|---|
| Yellow | Follow-up | Requires future engagement | "Contact in Future" |
| Green | Default Stage | Standard progression state | "Qualified", "Pending Enquiry", "Make Quote" |
| Blue | Last Stage | Terminal status or exit state | "Junk", "Fake", "Barred", "Drop", "Not Qualified" |
2.1 Pre-Lead Sources¶
- Campaign: Automated or manual outreach targeting specific industries or products.
- Database: Re-engaging existing customers (direct to Qualified) or validating new ones.
- Email: Direct inbound enquiries requiring validation.
2.2 Validation & Triage¶
For any new customer identified, the system triggers: 1. Automated Validation: CIN, PAN, and GST verification via MCA/GST APIs. 2. Contact Attempts: Telephonic or field visits log the "Contacted" or "Not Contacted" status.
2.3 Qualification & Conversion¶
Qualified leads can follow two distinct paths: 1. Business Development (BD): Continued nurturing for high-value potential. 2. Enquiry Screen: Direct conversion into the Sales Pipeline for active bidding.
3. Enquiry Management¶
Once converted to an Enquiry, the record enters the Enquiry Pipeline with specific sub-statuses to track technical and administrative dependencies:
| Status | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Pending Enquiry | Initial sales assessment pending |
| Pending Technical Query | Waiting for technical clarification or chemical spec review |
| Pending Samples | R&D/Production waiting for sample dispatch or customer feedback |
| Pending VQ Docs | Vendor Questionnaire (Compliance) documentation pending |
4. Automation Targets (Pebble IQ)¶
The AI layer enhances this workflow via: - Auto-send Mass Email: AI selects relevant content based on Campaign Type. - Auto-Qualified Recognition: Identifying "Old Customers" from the Database to bypass validation. - Sentiment Triage: Marking "Junk" or "Fake" enquiries automatically with high confidence scores.
